The German Chapter of the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is again organizing a German OWASP Conference, for the 5th time this year: the German OWASP Day.

There is a call for presentations (CfP), see below for details. The target group consists of German speaking people, and correspondingly the conference language is German, but English presentations are welcome as well. The German OWASP Day is a true security conference, with expected talks and presentations on secure software development, usage, test and management, all around web based applications. Non-technical talks are welcome as well. Please refrain from submitting plain marketing pitches.

CfP in detail

To submit a proposal, please submit online (LINK) an abstract of the presentation (500 to 4000 chararters) and a brief biography (150 to 800 characters). The planned presentation time is 40 minutes (excl. 5 minutes for discussion). You can also attach a preliminary version of your presentation. (Please watch out for mistakes as we take your abstract and publish it 1:1 together with our program).

We are interested in all topics related to Web Application Security and OWASP, in particular:

Depending on the number of submissions we will offer either one or two tracks. All presentations will be published on the conference website under the OWSAP license. Therefore all speakers must accept and sign the OWASP Speaker Agreement without changes prior to the conference. It requires that you use one of the following templates: (PPT, PPTX, ODF/OpenOffice).

Unfortunately we can't cover any travel expenses or costs for accomodations.

Participants and speakers are all warmly invited to attend the evening program on November 6, 2012.
